POLITICAL TESTER.

The nomination of Col. FRED GRANT
by the New York Republicans was in
tended as feeler. The office of secre-
tary of state is not one requiring any
extraordinary ability, and it is possible
that Col. GRANT could fill it aeceptably
if he should be elected. But it was not
because of any peculiar qualification
he possesses for that or any other Office
that he was nominated. Nor was it be-
cause of any distinguished service
that he has performed in behalf Of his
party. He was nominated simply be-
cause he is the son of his father. 1t is
ali experiment with the Republicans to
test the effect of a name in the coming
presidential canvass. In their extremity
to find an available presidential
candidate the Republicans are reSorting
to all sorts of experiments to discover
some element of popularity in some par
ticular individual, with the hope that
the magic of his name viii be sufficient
to arouse popular enthusiasm in support
of waning cause. ROBERT LINCoLN,s
name has been seriously canvaSsed in
connection with the Republican nemi-
nation for the presidency, for no other
reason than that he is the son of man
whose name and memory are dear to the
American heart. At the same time there
is an impression among the Wisest of
the Republican leaders that the Amer
lean people are too practical to hazard
the welfare of the country SIM
ply to crafty a sentiment. Before
l.,r, al,
certainty, the Republicans have con-
cluded to test what merit there is in
name, and have accordingly decided to
make the experiment with FRED GRANT.
If the son of his father should happen
to be elected to the office of secretary
of state in New York by tidal wave
vote, that would settle the Republican
presidential ticket, 1t would either be
GRANT and LINCOLN or LINCOLN and
GRANT, according to circumstances.
But if it should turn out that the New
York Republicans have to carry FRED
GRANT through the state canvass in
stead of GRANT carrying his party, that
would settle Bob LINCoIN's hash as a
presidential candidate. 1t is perhaps
unfortunate for young Mr.. LINCOLN
that his forerunner is not a better man.
FRED GRANT doesn't stand particularly
high in public estimation. He has
never done anything to reflect credit on
the great name he bears. On the con-
trary-he has made his name all instru-
ment of speculation whereby to make
money. His connection with the firm
of GRANT & WARD will be of no special
service TO him in the present political
canvass. The part he played in
the matter of selecting a burial
place for his distinguished father
was not calculated to commend
him to public favor. In the light
of young GRANTS past record the Amer
lean people will not feel that they are
doing any special honor to the fathers
memory by comforting Office on the
scapegrace of son. Mr.. EvARTs
seems to have been the controlling
spirit of the convention that nominated
young GRANT, and as Mr.. EvARTs is
more of a sentimentalist than either
politician or statesman, the party in
New York is apt to be badly wrecked
under his leadership.

A PROPER SPIRIT
Shown by Mrs. Cleveland in De-
clining a Recent Invitation.

Shown by Mrs. Cleveland in De-
Ginning a Recent Invitation.
NEW YORK, Sept. 16.-President
Beekman, of the board of aldermen,
wrote President Cleveland Sept. 10 ex-
pressing regret that the invitation to
Mrs. Cleveland to present certain flags
to the New York fremen had been con-
strued by some part of the public as
implying an affrent to the president
inasmuch as he was not included in the
Invitation. Mr.. Beekman assured
the president that the aldermen
had too high a respect for
him personally and officially to inten-
tionally commit such a breach
of etiquette. The president re-
18th that both Mrs. Cleveland and him
self had been annoyed by what seemed
to be a determination in some quarters
to lend to Mrs. Cleyeland's declination
a significance never for moment in
tended. Neither of them had the
slightest idea that any discourtesy
to the president was intended,
or that any appeared in
the form of invitation, nor was Mrs.
Cleveland's reply intended in any way
to recognize OF admit the existence of
any such intention OF appearance. The
question presented to Mrs. Cleveland was
whether she was willing to assume such
a public role entirely independent of
her husband, and not as an adjunct or
incident to something he was to do. Her
Judgment and feeling were against it,
and she declined the Invitation. Il
am very glad she did," concluded
the president, '9because if the
plain meaning of her declination
is distorted, l am sure her conduct
would have been if she had accepted.
With this explanation the regret COM
mon to us both is that the kind people
of New York and members of her grand
fire department should be in the least
disappointed

THE NIGHT ABLAZE.
A Display of Fire Works From
Robert Street Bridge.

The magnificent display of fire works
from the Robert street bridge could not
be enjoyed from the Illuminated portion
of Third street last night, a fact which
the crowd soon learned, and the
brilliantly lighted thoroughfare was de
serted for more advantageous ground.
By order of the police, spectators were
not allowed on the WabaSha street
bridge, but from every available roof
and window overlooking the river
the pyrotechnic beauties were
admired. The roof and tower of the
GLOBE building were packed with peo-
pie bent upon obtaining an unob-
structed view, and visitors looked from
nearly every window in the upper
stories. Residents on Dayton's bluff,
the West st. Paul bluffs. the Wabasha
and jackson street hills, st. Anthony
hills, enjoyed the scene from
their homes. The Jackson and Sibley
street levee and docks were crowded,
and select parties engaged barges and
boats lying alongshere. The hundred
thousand people who were for
tunate enough to witness the
amazing splendors which rained
from the sky in all con-
ceivable shapes and colOrs. There
were CLOUDS That nung and Heated like
great sheets of gold lace: snakes of fire
That shot swiftly up and wound slowly
down, kissing into the river; bombs
hurled almost out of sight which burst
and let a shower of meteors fall:
and balloons which .foated out
lazily, dropping balls of fame
at Intervals in their wake. Then the
whole bridge was lighted up with red
and green fire on either side till it
looked like vast arch of flame, and
when the glory died out, with
q boom that shook the CITY,, a
thousand rockets of red and green
and blue and yellow and every varying
shade, shot forth and fell in the dark
background of the sky-the grand finale.
When the fireworks were over the bands
on Third street begun to play, and the
multitndes came back to promenade be-
meath the lamps again.
Tonight the wheelmen of st. Paul
and Minneapolis will parade on their
bicycles. 1t is expected to be the largest
turnout of the kind ever in line. The
procession will form at 8 O'Clock in

An Extension OF the Kennel Clubs
Bench Show Until Tonight.
How the bench show in Jackson
street rink continues to be appreciated
can best be ascertained by visit in the
afternoon or evening. According to the
exhibitors it has been an unusually good
display of dog flesh. The children take
to it with the same degree of
glee they manifest over circus. Yes
terday the programme was especially
for the little ones. Sackett & Virgins
circus trick dogs gave three perform
anceS, forenoon. afternoon and evening.
There were the usual tricks of jumping
through the balloons and hoops. over
chairs, climbing upon chairs, walking
upon hind legs and like capers, and
the canine actors gave very creditable
display OF the results of Skillful train
ing and almost human intelligence.
To-day three more exhibitions will be
given. There will also be three grand
paradeS of the prize-winners. forenoon,
afternoon and evening. This has been
arranged specially for the children. and
as it is the closing day, the show will
be a benefit to the exhibitors. All
the prize winners, decorated with blue
and red ribbons will be marched around
Une nal4 several tlmeS. Tonight about
100 dogs will be taken to the bench
show at Eau Claire, which is to open to-
morrow and close Monday night, so
as to give the exhibitors
chance to reach the Milwaukee
bench show. which is to
open Tuesday. Two special cars have
been provided, and Naylor, Donahue,
Dale, Campbell and Blake. the Chest
nut Hill kennels, Manager Lewis. and
the Coughcura Medicine company will
take along a good showing of

To Succeed Porter.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 6.-There is still
uncertainty as to who will succeed Gov.
Porter as assistant secretary of state. 1t
is generally supposed that Mr.. Bayard
will not have a man for the place who
will not yield Judgment to him in all
matters and not assume to speak for the
department. He will certainly select
the man himself and his choice will
probably not be known unit l the ap-
pointment is formally announced. Elk
Representative Cox, of North Carolina,
is spoken of as man who will probably
suit Bayard. He is a warm friend of
Bayard's. He would, it is held, COM
bine dignity, discretion, diplomacy and
civil service reform in a manner quite
to Mr.. Bayard's taste.

LONDON, Sept. 16.-A terrible acct
dent on the Midland railroad to-day,
which has appalled, all England, was
occasioned by defective signaling. The
Midland train was standing on cross
ing about mile from Doncaster while
the tickets were being collected. The
Liverpool express, thinking the track
was clear, came tearing along at high
rate of speed, and before the EN-
gineer could stop his engine the express
dashed into the standing train with
fearful effect. The first passenger car
OF the Liverpool train was completely
telescoped over the next succeeding
cars. Both trains were badly wrecked
and the ground in the vicinity is strewn
with Splinters. The dying and the
injured lay groaning and bleeding
for a long time before they could
be rescued from their terrible suffer-
lngs. Many were taken to DoncaSter to
hospitals, while Others, too badly hurt
to be moved SO far, are being cared for
near the scene of the disaster. Twenty
four victims are already reported dead,
and there are many of the injured who
will die from their wounds. Over sew
enty were manned.
THE SCENE WAS HORRIBLE.
Scores of people lay bleeding or dead,
wedged amid the splintered woodwork
and debris. Their shrieks and
groans were heartrending but it
was impossible to release them till
mechanical appliances arrived. Many
were taken out shockingly mangled,
with arms and legs severed. Others
were almost decapitated and disembow-
eled. The dead were laid in an adjoin-
ing meadow. Some were only reeog-
niZable by their clothing. The
injured were conveyed in improvised
ambulances to the nearest house.
A number of surgeons were Immediately
in attendance. There were numerous
broken legs, some requiring amputa-
ton. ALI that it was possible to re-
move were taken to an infrmatory
A mother with her baby in

instance a mother and child were

completely off and the body was found
sitting upright in the carriage. The
work OF eXtrication was conducted by
means of a saw and an axe, which
caused acute suffering to the injured.
